An Investigation of the Procedures Used to Assign Students to Remedial Oral Communication Instruction.
Decker, Warren D.
Communication Education, v31 n2 p131-40 Apr 1982
Suggests that the verbal score on the Scholastic Aptitude Test is not an adequate criterion for assigning students to remedial communication instruction. Concludes that the communication skills deficit model demonstrates the capacity for consistent measurement of communication skills if evaluators are trained to use the same decision-making criteria.
